In some circumstances, bottle feeding can be much more convenient than breast feeding. Once the formula is prepared, you can feed your baby in just about any location at any time.
Mothers do not have to worry about their own diet as much as their breast feeding counterparts do.
With bottle feeding the father can play a very active role in the feeding of the baby, as opposed to with breast feeding normally only the mother can provide this function (unless the mother pumps her breasts for milk). This can help the father to feel more involved in the development of the child and helps with the baby/father bonding.
With bottle feeding it is easier to monitor how much food the baby is eating and, because the milk formula is harder to digest than breast milk, it is likely that your baby will not need to eat as often.
